Apr 21 10:51:11 * HH chuckles Apr 21 10:51:13 You -seen- my wife?! Not sure how anyone can use their big brain with ‘Er around! Apr 21 10:51:15 * Morgan nods, stroking Emil's hair Apr 21 10:51:19 Understandable Apr 21 10:51:53 * Molly is now known as HH Apr 21 10:52:28 Thought mebbie we’d take Emil back the Big ‘Ouse soon, get him settled for th’ night with Maggie Apr 21 10:53:33 * Morgan nods Apr 21 10:53:35 alright Apr 21 10:54:37 * HH nods “How you doin’, man?” Apr 21 10:54:44 * Morgan shrugs Apr 21 10:54:50 Its difficult... lots of memories and worries Apr 21 10:54:56 * HH nods Apr 21 10:55:15 ‘Opefully it’ll be over soon. Can’t she speed things up? Apr 21 10:56:13 $Seen that. They all die$ Apr 21 10:56:33 $fuck.$ Apr 21 10:56:44 It takes as long as it takes Apr 21 10:56:54 * HH nods Apr 21 10:57:08 You wanna go outside, swing swords around? Apr 21 10:57:39 Can do for a little bit... supposed to be keeping Otto company Apr 21 10:59:01 Inga and David are here. ‘Sides, no-one’s gonna keep his mind off it, jus’ like we’re gonn’ be Apr 21 10:59:49 * Morgan nods Apr 21 10:59:49 Aye Apr 21 11:01:28 * HH heads outside. There’s not as much free space as they used to have here, sparring and messing around, mostly at the beginning before Dietlinde was pregnant and he had other things on his mind. They find a little space though Apr 21 11:03:30 * Morgan sighs, drawing his sword and saluting HeinzHarold Apr 21 11:04:56 * HH does likewise. They go through quite a b working up a sweat and helping him to re-centre. By the time they’re done, they’ve been at it for half an hour. Apr 21 11:05:07 Man, we are not training often enough. Apr 21 11:05:32 No, we're not Apr 21 11:06:21 Need to get on that Apr 21 11:07:37 * Morgan nods Apr 21 11:07:38 Definitely Apr 21 11:08:44 That’s what Inga’s been saying all day *he grins* Apr 21 11:09:27 * Morgan stretches, nodding Apr 21 11:10:10 [my love, how long until food is ready?] Apr 21 11:10:27 *it’ll probably be half an hour* Apr 21 11:10:39 [about half hour love] Apr 21 11:11:21 [I think it’ll have to wait then, I’d expect the babies within the next two] Apr 21 11:12:06 * Morgan blinks Apr 21 11:12:10 [do you need anything?] Apr 21 11:12:55 [Yes, but absolutely nothing connected to delivering babies...] Apr 21 11:13:20 [alright love. Keep me informed?] Apr 21 11:13:27 [I will] Apr 21 11:13:51 * HH watches him Apr 21 11:14:12 either you’re having an apoplexy or talkin’ to yer wife Apr 21 11:14:21 * Morgan nods a little, speaking quietly Apr 21 11:14:25 She reckons next couple of hours Apr 21 11:14:46 Huh, that sped up. Inga said it’d be before night time Apr 21 11:15:34 * Morgan nods Apr 21 11:15:45 They're going to hold off having food Apr 21 11:17:02 Must be starvin’ by now, I know I am Apr 21 11:18:47 Cant say for sure its edible, David had a hand in cooking it Apr 21 11:19:20 Man, I’ve eaten -your- cookin’ and I didn’t die... Apr 21 11:21:34 I'm not that bad Apr 21 11:21:48 yeah... okay man, whatever ya say Apr 21 11:23:36 * Morgan thumps him, heading back toward the cottage Apr 21 11:23:58 * HH chuckles Apr 21 11:24:09 That one’s on th’ house Apr 21 11:25:37 * Morgan nods Apr 21 11:25:40 Rightly so Apr 21 11:26:06 Yer prob’ly gonn’ need that arm later anyhow! Apr 21 11:26:39 * Morgan shrugs Apr 21 11:26:40 Perhaps Apr 21 11:28:08 * HH chuckles, going indoors. The casserole does smell good now, and 8n the kitchen he sees Inga has taken over the cooking Apr 21 11:28:24 * HH whispers “No food poisonin’ for us then” Apr 21 11:31:15 * Morgan nods Apr 21 11:32:26 thankfully Apr 21 11:33:33 *they get more drinks. David starts hovering, telling Inga, who was a kitchen maid since she could first walk, how to cook Apr 21 11:33:51 $wow, man, he’s a total tit sometimes$ Apr 21 11:34:07 * Morgan nods a little Apr 21 11:34:14 David, go take a seat, we've got this Apr 21 11:34:38 David moves a little: You need a lot more salt than that... Apr 21 11:34:51 * HH smirks “Inga don’t like it too salty!” Apr 21 11:35:29 *She kicks his shin behind the counter, only given away by the slight creasing of his brow Apr 21 11:35:44 * Morgan smiles Apr 21 11:36:11 Too much salt isn't good for women in labour, or just after birth... Apr 21 11:36:40 *David and Otto nod, but don’t get the hint Apr 21 11:37:12 You can always add salt to yours once its served Apr 21 11:37:47 *David nods, and escorts Otto to the parlour. Inga looks to HH, smiling a little “That was really rude!” Apr 21 11:38:26 * HH nods “Shouldn’t really tell a fib, you love it salty” Apr 21 11:39:16 * Morgan blushes Apr 21 11:39:43 *Inga blushes* Shush now. Apr 21 11:40:01 * HH chuckles, getting some bowls Apr 21 11:40:24 *She looks to Morgan* Sorry, he’s awful Apr 21 11:41:39 * Morgan nods Apr 21 11:41:41 He really is Apr 21 11:43:14 * HH nods, not looking at all chastised. It’s not too long before some of it is dished up, complete with bread and butter Apr 21 11:43:33 David: Once we’re done I’ll take theirs over Apr 21 11:44:24 * Morgan shakes his head slightly Apr 21 11:44:37 Best wait til we get word now Apr 21 11:45:10 D: Have you heard anyth8ng? Apr 21 11:45:58 Molly reckons next couple of hours Apr 21 11:46:42 *Otto looks surprised* Sooner than expected Apr 21 11:47:40 About when Inga reckoned though Apr 21 11:49:13 *Inga smiles at this* Apr 21 11:49:32 O: but it’s going alright? They’re safe? Apr 21 11:49:44 Its all going as planned Otto Apr 21 11:51:13 *Otto looks relieved, but the next hour he looks less so, and David finds him some tinkering and fixing to do around the house to keep him busy. HH takes the opportunity to cuddle up with Inga on the couch, Emil asleep in a crib that’s been brought downstairs Apr 21 11:56:45 I: will you keep Heinzharold company when it’s my turn? Apr 21 11:57:43 Of course Apr 21 11:59:02 I’m gonn’ be blackout drunk through it Apr 21 11:59:24 Reckon? Apr 21 11:59:31 * HH nods Apr 21 12:00:01 *Inga looks at him* You won’t. I won’t have our baby’s first smell of you be blokners! Apr 21 12:00:58 * HH grins at her “Better have my normal sweaty smell, huh? like this? *he pulls his arm from behind her, pushing his armpit towards her face* Apr 21 12:02:07 Gross man Apr 21 12:03:13 *Inga laughs, shoving him gently away* You smell like a farmyard animal! Apr 21 12:03:44 * HH nods, doing it again “like a big, sexy bull” Apr 21 12:04:08 *Inga looks at Morgan, giggling “bulls only have one teat...” Apr 21 12:04:27 * Morgan blushes Apr 21 12:05:41 *Inga slaps Heinzharold’s belly, then moves out from his armpit* Apr 21 12:07:01 * HH makes an oof as he gets the air knocked out of him, but he’s more surprised when Inga kisses him on the mouth before saying “pack it in” Apr 21 12:07:21 * Morgan looks toward the window Apr 21 12:08:26 *it’s still daylight, for now. He hears another kiss before HH says “It’s okay, we’re done now” Apr 21 12:11:03 * Morgan nods Apr 21 12:12:11 *He doesn’t antagonise her further* Apr 21 12:12:35 Only a few days til we pack our bed up and taking it to th’ new place Apr 21 12:14:20 * Morgan sighs, nodding Apr 21 12:14:49 I: I’m really looking forward to it Apr 21 12:15:03 You still wanna make us a table, man? Apr 21 12:15:08 * Morgan nods Apr 21 12:15:14 Already got the timber for it Apr 21 12:15:45 Gotta be pretty sturdy, but I’m sure ya know whether it’s sturdy enough! Apr 21 12:16:34 * Morgan blushes Apr 21 12:16:36 Shut up Apr 21 12:17:40 I: *she shakes her head, but she’s smiling* He has sex on the brain tonight! Apr 21 12:18:03 I've noticed Apr 21 12:18:05 * HH nods, not looking ashamed Apr 21 12:18:15 I: Will your garden be finished? Apr 21 12:18:47 *The walls were just being finished last weekend, so almost certainly, maybe the little cottage inside too* Apr 21 12:19:02 probably Apr 21 12:19:21 I: That’ll be nice, you can sunbathe in there Apr 21 12:19:54 * Morgan nods Apr 21 12:19:56 aye Apr 21 12:20:10 [Alright then, I think we’re about to start pushing...] Apr 21 12:20:30 [alright my love. Good luck] Apr 21 12:20:49 [thank you. I hope you are alright?] Apr 21 12:21:40 [Aye, Otto's anxious but we're all okay] Apr 21 12:22:06 [I am missing you, when I have a moment to let my mind wander] Apr 21 12:23:51 [and I you] Apr 21 12:23:54 I: Will you be out there a lot? Apr 21 12:24:29 We'll have to wait and see really Apr 21 12:25:51 *She nods* We should take Emil home. Do you want your carriage sent down so Molly won’t have to walk back? Apr 21 12:25:57 * Morgan nods Apr 21 12:25:59 please Apr 21 12:26:28 * HH nods, getting up “you gonn’ be okay?” Apr 21 12:26:44 * Morgan nods Apr 21 12:26:46 I'll manage Apr 21 12:27:12 *Inga hugs him. Even after so long, she still smells a little of Molly* Apr 21 12:27:54 I: we’ll see you later Apr 21 12:28:34 * Morgan nods, hugging her Apr 21 12:28:37 aye Apr 21 12:29:18 *they gather up and take Emil, who doesn’t even wake. This leaves Morgan alone in the parlour Apr 21 12:29:42 * Morgan gets up, setting about tidying up Apr 21 12:31:11 *he can hear David and Otto upstairs, talking and hammering. They seem settled enough that Morgan can do a thorough cleanup without their interruption. He will need some more water from the little well that remains in the clearing, just as it was before Apr 21 12:31:39 * Morgan trudges out to it to get water Apr 21 12:32:20 *It’s so similar, the same bucket, the same rope, that for a moment it’s almost like going back in time Apr 21 12:33:27 * Morgan sighs heavily, just looking at the bucket Apr 21 12:34:06 *He can briefly smell Lily Of The Valley, though almost as soon as he registers it it’s gone* Apr 21 12:36:17 I know love... I'm trying, but its difficult Apr 21 12:36:51 *he feels a sudden sense of alarm, and then a soul-deep pull towards Molly* Apr 21 12:37:03 [I need you!] Apr 21 12:37:09 * Morgan drops the bucket, breaking into a sprint Apr 21 12:37:16 [on my way. Whats wrong?] Apr 21 12:37:59 [oh god, oh god, somethings wrong, she’s not breathing! I don’t know what’s wrong with her!] Apr 21 12:38:24 [has she bled too much? Does she have a pulse?] Apr 21 12:38:40 [Not Sascha, the baby!] Apr 21 12:39:28 [okay. Check her mouth, check for a pulse. Was the cord around her neck?] Apr 21 12:40:19 [No, it wasn’t... Molly, calm down... think...] *she seems to be also talking to herself* Apr 21 12:40:47 [listen for a heart beat, then rub her chest] Apr 21 12:41:36 *there’s a pause, then [okay... okay... I think I have her again...] Apr 21 12:41:51 * Morgan doesn't slow down Apr 21 12:43:04 *there used to be a little path through the edge of the clearing that came out near the house, a slightly shorter route Dietlinde would sometimes take if she was just popping through for more sugar, or some more thread* Apr 21 12:43:17 * Morgan aims for it Apr 21 12:43:40 [I breathed for her, like you with Hope...] Apr 21 12:43:54 [that was my next suggestion] Apr 21 12:44:03 [well done my love] Apr 21 12:44:44 *he can pick his way through the trees still, though it’s been years now. His neck prickles madly once he gets near the house* Apr 21 12:45:03 [whats going on?] Apr 21 12:45:34 [I’m trying to work out what’s wrong, but the other baby is coming too!] Apr 21 12:45:48 [I'm nearly there] Apr 21 12:46:18 *he arrives at that front door again* Apr 21 12:46:36 * Morgan tries the door Apr 21 12:46:43 *it’s unlocked* Apr 21 12:46:50 * Morgan pushes the door open Apr 21 12:46:55 [I'm here. What do you need?] Apr 21 12:47:26 *He can hear the sound of pain from upstairs, similar to the cast. His blood suddenly runs cold at it* Apr 21 12:48:12 [come up and take her in the other room please, and watch her like a hawk, every breath!] Apr 21 12:49:07 * Morgan shakes himself as he runs up the stairs, looking for them Apr 21 12:49:15 * HH is now known as Molly Apr 21 12:50:05 * Molly comes out into the hall, baby wrapped in a light weight blanket. She has that same mark on blood on her nose that he had in his dream reviving Hope Apr 21 12:50:22 * Morgan frowns briefly, taking the baby Apr 21 12:51:56 *She’s small, smaller than Jana by far. She looks nothing like his own daughter at all though, her hair is dark, and her colouring is not the flushed pink Jana was, she’s pale, almost a little bluish. Molly looks extremely worried Apr 21 12:52:09 Call me, if anything changes at all, Apr 21 12:52:20 * Morgan nods, taking her into another room Apr 21 12:53:12 *the other room here is Dietlinde’s old bedroom, now fitted with the cribs Morgan made, and one of the chairs Morgan made. The fragile baby breathes fast and shallow Apr 21 12:53:38 * Morgan walks around with her Apr 21 12:53:55 Alright kid, you've got to help me here, okay? Apr 21 12:55:12 *Nothing changes, aside from sometimes Sascha makes sounds of pain and effort, and sometimes he can hear Molly’s voice, sounding utterly calm and in control of the situation when she and Martha converse Apr 21 12:55:33 * Morgan closes his eyes, speaking quietly Apr 21 12:56:00 please... I need your help... you have to help them Apr 21 12:56:32 *he feels not quite as alone in the room Apr 21 12:57:10 After everything thats been taken from them... Apr 21 12:57:37 *The sound of the birthing intensifies from the other room. The tiny baby breathes on in the same awkward way* Apr 21 12:58:04 Please, help me know what to do Apr 21 12:59:46 *he feels a more defined sense of presence, and with it is the smell of Capperlucian incense* Apr 21 13:00:14 [how is she?] Apr 21 13:00:41 [the same. How are they?] Apr 21 13:00:53 She needs you... Apr 21 13:01:01 [expect a cry any moment] Apr 21 13:02:50 *he feels another presence join in the room, different this time, with a smell of Rosemary and Heather bushes Apr 21 13:03:21 * Morgan frowns a little Apr 21 13:04:03 *This last bit sounds awful for Sascha, but Molly and Martha are both encouraging her to push, and a few seconds later there is a very loud, indignant scream of an infant Apr 21 13:04:50 *the baby in his arms seems to stir a little at this, but then returns to how she was* Apr 21 13:06:13 Come on little lady, I need you to perk up so you can meet your sibling Apr 21 13:07:44 *She doesn’t, but it’s only a minute later before Molly arrives. She looks tired, frazzled. However she’s just held it together for Sascha, she looks less able to with Morgan. In the other room, the second baby sounds perfectly fine, if pissed off Apr 21 13:08:07 Get a drink, Molly Apr 21 13:08:14 * Molly shakes her head Apr 21 13:08:29 Not yet, not until I have made her well Apr 21 13:08:45 You don't know whats wrong... you cant fix what you don't know Apr 21 13:09:21 * Molly sits in the rocking chair he made “The boy is out, Mama is watching him and Sascha. Can I have her, please?” Apr 21 13:09:55 * Morgan nods, handing her over Apr 21 13:10:48 * Molly lays her on her lap, undoing the blanket, looking over the baby with the bluish skin tone, stroking her face, the other hand on her chest Apr 21 13:11:17 Oh Little One... What is the matter with you?! Apr 21 13:11:53 *his neck prickles intensely, and he can even feel a tingle in the places she’s healed him before* Apr 21 13:13:21 * Morgan closes his eyes, praying quietly Apr 21 13:13:50 * Molly tilts her head, then wraps her up Apr 21 13:13:59 I have an idea. Hold her, please Apr 21 13:14:56 * Morgan nods, taking her Apr 21 13:16:08 * Molly goes straight through to the other room, assuring them Morgan is watching her, checking Sascha is doing okay, and then he feels magic again before she says “Wonderful, I’ll be right back” Apr 21 13:19:08 * Morgan waits, rocking the baby Apr 21 13:19:47 * Molly comes in, just undoing the blanket from the baby in his arms Apr 21 13:19:51 Hold her tight Apr 21 13:19:59 * Morgan nods Apr 21 13:20:57 * Molly puts her hand on the baby’s chest, closing her eyes and concentrating hard. He feels the magic on his skin, very powerful Apr 21 13:21:44 * Morgan frowns Apr 21 13:22:59 *the baby takes a sudden bigger breath, and then pink starts to infuse from her chest through her extremities, banishing that awful blue. Her eyes open, and then she cries loudly Apr 21 13:23:39 * Molly lets go, looking at her and nodding Apr 21 13:23:49 That’s more like it. Apr 21 13:25:51 What did you do? Apr 21 13:28:01 There’s a join between the heart and the lungs that allows the mother’s body to provide everything for them. It has to close as soon as they’re born, or they can’t separate the heart system and the lung system enough to breath properly. Hers didn’t close, her brother’s did. Apr 21 13:28:27 But she's okay now? Apr 21 13:28:34 * Molly nods, smiling Apr 21 13:28:40 She’s fine now Apr 21 13:28:55 *the baby still cries, but looks up at Morgan Apr 21 13:28:56 * Morgan nods Apr 21 13:29:47 * Molly gently wraps her and takes her, hushing her softly Apr 21 13:30:15 We’ll be alright here now, if you wish to find Otto... Apr 21 13:30:41 Sure? Apr 21 13:31:30 * Molly nods “We should have everything cleaned up in about twenty minutes. And for the love of all that is holy, please bring some food!” she smiles Apr 21 13:32:30 * Morgan nods, handing the baby over Apr 21 13:32:40 Alright love. I'll be back soon. Well done. Apr 21 13:36:45 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 21 13:37:52 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 21 13:39:29 Alright love. I'll be back soon. Well done. Apr 21 13:40:31 * Molly nods, smiling “I’ll look forward to it” she takes the baby into the other room. Sascha sounds delighted to see the baby Apr 21 13:41:53 * Morgan blows out a breath, heading down the stairs and jogging back towards Davids Apr 21 13:42:42 *the adrenaline of it suddenly wears of in the middle of the path between the houses, and it all hits him like a ton of bricks Apr 21 13:43:00 * Morgan mutters 'fuck' as he stumbles a few times Apr 21 13:43:47 *Fortunately he makes it there without any injury* Apr 21 13:44:13 * Morgan pushes the door open Apr 21 13:44:36 *he can hear them laughing upstairs* Apr 21 13:46:06 * Morgan takes a moment to prepare the casserole to take before climbing the stairs Apr 21 13:46:39 *they’re putting in a bookshelf to one wall* Apr 21 13:46:55 Otto... Apr 21 13:47:03 * Molly is now known as Otto Apr 21 13:47:10 Yes, Morgan? Apr 21 13:48:05 Bit of a scare, but everyone is fine. Its time to go meet your children Apr 21 13:48:21 * Otto looks absolutely elated Apr 21 13:48:30 they’re here, already?! Apr 21 13:48:44 Might I suggest not saying that to Sascha? Apr 21 13:49:24 *They laugh. David pats Otto on the shoulder* Congratulations, Otto Apr 21 13:50:51 We'll take the casserole, there'll be some hungry women by now Apr 21 13:51:58 *they get ready to go, and walk towards the shore. If Otto ever took the quick way, he must have forgotten it Apr 21 13:52:31 *the sky is golden now, and dusk won’t be far behind Apr 21 13:53:09 * Morgan walks along quietly Apr 21 13:54:08 *Otto opens the door gently when he gets there. David takes the pot into the kitchen Apr 21 13:54:51 * Otto looks at the staircase a long moment Apr 21 13:55:08 Nervous? Apr 21 13:55:29 * Otto nods a little “it’s hard to explain” Apr 21 13:56:12 Its about to be really real... Apr 21 13:56:32 * Otto nods Apr 21 13:56:45 More pieces of my heart outside my body. Apr 21 13:57:06 * Morgan nods Apr 21 13:57:07 I know Apr 21 13:57:35 * Otto takes a deep breath, then begins the ascent Apr 21 13:57:53 * Morgan follows him up Apr 21 14:00:50 *the door to their room is open, everything smells clean, soapy. Sascha is sat up in bed, looking remarkably robust considering her age, stature, and ordeal. In one arm she holds both babies resting on a pillow, one dark, one fair. The infants are holding hands. Otto looks so touched, so proud, and he comes to kneel beside the bed to look at them. Apr 21 14:01:15 * Morgan waits just outside the threshold Apr 21 14:03:24 *Otto puts his hand over Sascha’s and then one on the babies’ heads. He doesn’t seem to have the words his expression has, love, gratitude, and that same bittersweet feeling Morgan knows from interacting with Hirschen. Molly watches the four of them before glancing at Morgan.

Apr 21 14:37:16 * Morgan nods, sitting down with them Apr 21 14:37:29 * Molly watches him, smiling Apr 21 14:37:42 I want twins next...

My nerves need time to recover!] Apr 21 14:42:43 Martha: She did a wonderful job getting Sascha through it Apr 21 14:42:53 [so do mine] Apr 21 14:42:56 I knew she would Apr 21 14:43:39 * Molly blushes at the praise. She comes to kneel by him, looking at the babies. she speaks quietly Apr 21 14:43:57 I think they both look more like Otto’s side... Apr 21 14:44:17 Might be right Apr 21 14:44:42 Martha: Will you come back in the morning to see how they are? Apr 21 14:45:04 * Molly nods “I will, yes” Apr 21 14:45:55 *Both babies look very peaceful.

She watches him “You are coming, aren’t you?” Apr 21 14:54:45 Aye, lets get back Apr 21 14:55:13 * Molly gets in, putting her coat and bag on the rear facing seat Apr 21 14:56:12 * Morgan climbs in to sit beside her Apr 21 14:58:06 * Molly gets settled, and the door gets shut.

Apr 21 14:59:49 * Molly strokes his Palm with her fingers Apr 21 14:59:58 I’m okay Apr 21 15:01:28 * Morgan nods Apr 21 15:01:29 good Apr 21 15:02:01 And you, my love? How are -you-?

Maybe we will get very, very lucky Apr 21 15:06:54 I don't see that being the case Apr 21 15:07:12 * Molly nods. She rests her cheek to his arm Apr 21 15:07:50 You’ll want to go to tell everyone what has happened? Apr 21 15:08:52 Probably should really Apr 21 15:09:19 * Molly nods “Yes... probably should” Apr 21 15:12:18 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 21 16:06:38 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 21 16:07:04 But you don't want to Apr 21 16:07:24 It’s important that they know Apr 21 16:08:05 Thats not what I asked Apr 21 16:08:20 * Molly shrugs Apr 21 16:09:03 I don’t know that I have it in me Apr 21 16:13:29 Why?

Apr 21 17:39:29 Sort of required for bathing Apr 21 17:42:41 * Molly nods, standing up.

Apr 21 18:03:58 * Morgan snorts, coming back to the bath Apr 21 18:06:03 * Molly moves to stand in the bath when he’s at the top of the steps. She’s much shorter like this, but she boldly caresses his thighs briefly before squeezing his bottom “Mmhmm, very lovely” Apr 21 18:07:51 * Morgan smiles, following her down the steps Apr 21 18:08:35 * Molly moves back to where she was, the water high enough when she sits to cover her breasts Apr 21 18:08:54 of course, you cannot reach mine, for now Apr 21 18:09:03 No, not yet Apr 21 18:09:43 * Molly nods, watching him.

Apr 21 18:13:54 * Morgan nods, sitting down in the water Apr 21 18:14:53 * Molly shifts so she’s sat beside him, her wet skin meeting his at arm and thigh Apr 21 18:15:58 Have you missed me this close today? Apr 21 18:16:02 * Morgan nods Apr 21 18:16:05 I have yes Apr 21 18:16:46 * Molly smiles “did you imagine ending the day in a nice warm bath with me?” Apr 21 18:17:53 I figured you'd be still at Sascha and Otto's to be honest Apr 21 18:18:18 oh? You thought to be coming back to the Veisgraf Wing alone, hmm? Apr 21 18:18:34 Figured I might have to Apr 21 18:19:03 mmhmmm... *she smiles with mischief* Apr 21 18:21:28 Might have to What, my love... *her tone is playful rather than confused* Apr 21 18:21:49 Return here alone... Apr 21 18:24:53 * Molly pouts, then kisses his cheek “that’s not all, in my imagination!” Apr 21 18:25:10 No? Apr 21 18:26:07 * Molly shakes her head Apr 21 18:26:29 In my imagination the day would have left you very, very in need of me... Apr 21 18:28:39 So a normal day then Apr 21 18:32:15 * Molly giggles, holding his hand beneath the water Apr 21 18:32:23 Oh no, much worse than that! Apr 21 18:33:13 Not sure any man could take that Apr 21 18:33:24 * Molly smiles warmly Apr 21 18:33:41 Has it been very hard today, mon petit chou? Apr 21 18:34:39 On and off, yes... been some tough memories and thoughts too Apr 21 18:35:08 * Molly nods a little, expression becoming more serious Apr 21 18:35:29 that’s to be expected, I think Apr 21 18:36:45 I imagine so, yes Apr 21 18:37:06 * Molly nods Apr 21 18:37:21 how was your nap? was it nice to rest? Apr 21 18:37:49 I suppose so... I was annoyed I was not available to help for so long Apr 21 18:38:04 you’d had a bad night... Apr 21 18:38:48 * Morgan nods Apr 21 18:38:49 I did Apr 21 18:39:12 * Molly nods closing her eyes Apr 21 18:39:29 if not for my dream, I’d have rushed it Apr 21 18:39:36 * Morgan nods Apr 21 18:39:38 I know Apr 21 18:40:05 * Molly looks to now be brooding Apr 21 18:41:07 Stop it Apr 21 18:41:27 * Molly opens her eyes Apr 21 18:41:33 sorry, my love Apr 21 18:41:40 Its alright Apr 21 18:42:11 * Molly sighs, shaking it off Apr 21 18:42:40 how did you react to Inga coming to you smelling like me Apr 21 18:42:52 That was confusing Apr 21 18:43:04 * Molly giggles Apr 21 18:43:20 I wanted to give you a pleasant distraction Apr 21 18:44:52 * Morgan nods Apr 21 18:44:57 It worked for awhile Apr 21 18:45:06 * Molly smiles Apr 21 18:45:21 was that when you were hardest, hmm? Apr 21 18:45:57 No, that was after I woke from my nap Apr 21 18:46:10 Where -did- you nap? Apr 21 18:48:37 HeinzHarolds bed, fully clothed Apr 21 18:48:49 * Molly giggles “oh my!” Apr 21 18:51:28 indeed Apr 21 18:51:41 * Molly kisses his cheek Apr 21 18:52:08 we wouldn’t have wanted Ma seeing your branch and big berries, would we... Apr 21 18:52:37 Uhhh... no, thank you Apr 21 18:52:59 * Molly smiles “were you in something of a predicament, my love?” Apr 21 18:54:00 I was a bit, aye Apr 21 18:54:33 mmm that is nice to hear. would you have remained in a predicament, had you been here? Apr 21 18:55:08 I daresay so Apr 21 18:55:56 Were you left with some aching? Apr 21 18:57:56 A bit, yes Apr 21 18:58:52 * Molly shivers a little Apr 21 19:00:24 what were you dreaming? Apr 21 19:00:41 Uhhh... Apr 21 19:03:24 you cannot recall? Apr 21 19:03:33 Didn't say that Apr 21 19:04:26 are you feeling shy? will this help? *she puts his hand on her belly, smiling* Apr 21 19:06:31 * Morgan nods a little Apr 21 19:06:34 I've missed that Apr 21 19:06:53 * Molly nods Apr 21 19:07:19 If you wish, we will wash quickly, dry, and then you can listen to him in our rooms Apr 21 19:07:56 No, its fine Apr 21 19:08:09 * Molly nods Apr 21 19:08:15 Your dream then? Apr 21 19:09:23 * Morgan shrugs Apr 21 19:09:28 I was going down on you Apr 21 19:09:50 * Molly nods Apr 21 19:10:09 You are extremely good at that. And fond of it, I think? Apr 21 19:10:43 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:10:45 I am Apr 21 19:11:09 A shame you couldn’t just come and find me, I’d have welcomed the attention Apr 21 19:11:39 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:11:41 aye Apr 21 19:12:35 Down by the shore, of course. Not there. Apr 21 19:12:58 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:13:00 aye Apr 21 19:13:46 Did it take you a little while to calm down? Apr 21 19:14:08 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:14:11 Aye, it did Apr 21 19:14:19 good Apr 21 19:16:36 Good? Apr 21 19:17:12 mmhmm. Does it not please you when I am aroused by you and struggle to calm down? Apr 21 19:17:19 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:17:21 aye Apr 21 19:17:46 there we go then... sadly I got to have no erotic dreams of you Apr 21 19:18:34 No, you were very busy Apr 21 19:18:49 * Molly nods Apr 21 19:18:57 I’ll hope for one for tonight Apr 21 19:19:15 That'd make a nice change Apr 21 19:19:23 * Molly nods Apr 21 19:19:29 yes it would Apr 21 19:21:01 you wouldn’t have to wait to dream of doing that to me though, I am always available to you Apr 21 19:21:32 Oh? Apr 21 19:22:09 mmhmm. my skirts are easily lifted and time the need takes you Apr 21 19:22:28 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:23:48 * Molly strokes his cheek gently “I think we should get washed” Apr 21 19:24:55 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:24:57 Aye, we should Apr 21 19:25:46 * Molly nods, moving away to get the soaps, and two flannels. She’s brought the cream ones for this purpose, it seems Apr 21 19:26:43 * Morgan watches her for a moment before starting to get cleaned up Apr 21 19:27:33 * Molly comes closer, catching his hand. She watches him “I want to do that...” Apr 21 19:31:26 Uhhh... okay... Apr 21 19:33:54 * Molly nods. She takes her time at this, sometimes with the flannel, sometimes with her soapy hands. Though he was bathed as a small child, he’d not been very old when he became more private and taken it over. Not wanting to upset Dietlinde with his back scars, they’d never done it. she works top down, right to his toes, but avoids his groin on the first pass. She watches his expression Apr 21 19:34:27 * Morgan starts to look relaxed Apr 21 19:35:32 * Molly smiles, working back up his leg before doing his lower belly, where his placket buttons would sit Apr 21 19:35:50 * Morgan sighs contentedly Apr 21 19:36:32 * Molly smiles, setting the flannel on his chest before soaking up her hands Apr 21 19:36:40 is this relaxing, my love. Apr 21 19:37:49 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:37:51 It is actually Apr 21 19:39:15 * Molly nods, both hands moving down to his pubic hair, holding off on touching his manhood. She smiles “still relaxing?” Apr 21 19:39:31 uhh... a bit? Apr 21 19:40:41 * Molly nods, smiling. She moves lower, now gently working her fingers over his balls, and lower, though not as low as he’s had his hands and more upon her Apr 21 19:41:24 * Morgan moans quietly Apr 21 19:42:09 * Molly looks happy “Now that is music to my ears...” Apr 21 19:42:17 Is it? Apr 21 19:43:03 oh yes *she runs her thumbs up the creases where his legs meet his groin, and then back down again* Apr 21 19:43:13 * Morgan moans again Apr 21 19:45:32 * Molly looks to relax more too, more of the tension of the day disappearing from her brow, from her shoulders. Her soft cleaning returns to his balls, and then gently these fingers brush his base Apr 21 19:46:19 * Morgan twitches a little Apr 21 19:47:26 * Molly removes her hands from the water, soaping them again before she leans forward and gently kisses him, her breasts and belly making contact with his skin Apr 21 19:48:23 * Morgan kisses her back Apr 21 19:50:13 * Molly fidgets whilst she kisses him so that when she pulls away she’s straddling his legs down by his knees. Her hands find him in the water again, gentle but confident Apr 21 19:50:25 I think you’re nearly done... Apr 21 19:50:55 Oh? Apr 21 19:51:23 * Molly brings both hands right up his length to the tip Apr 21 19:51:38 * Morgan moans Apr 21 19:51:40 There’s not really anything left for me to clean... Apr 21 19:53:26 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:53:28 Alright love Apr 21 19:54:19 * Molly works both hands on him in opposite twists, one hand towards his base, the other near his head Apr 21 19:54:43 Oh god Apr 21 19:54:59 * Molly smiles, doing it again Apr 21 19:55:11 That’s a good cleaning technique? Apr 21 19:55:33 uhhhh... yeah Apr 21 19:56:40 * Molly nods, doing it again, watching his expression “you certainly feel nicely polished” Apr 21 19:57:40 Polished? Apr 21 19:57:56 mmhmm... smooth, shiny Apr 21 19:58:33 * Morgan nods Apr 21 19:59:04 * Molly swaps the directions Apr 21 20:01:07 * Morgan jumps Apr 21 20:01:22 No? Apr 21 20:02:04 Wasn't expecting it Apr 21 20:02:17 * Molly smiles, still doing it Apr 21 20:03:39 Have you ever achieved release in a bath? ((No canon, plausible that he would have for privacy at the academy, or to hide the evidence easier when here on leave)) Apr 21 20:05:53 Uhhh no... Apr 21 20:06:21 * Molly smiles mischievously “it was close, or you’re hoping to?” Apr 21 20:06:43 Well, I wouldn't complain... Apr 21 20:07:08 * Molly nods Apr 21 20:07:27 It does feel nice in a bath, in my experience... Apr 21 20:07:33 Oh? Apr 21 20:07:51 mmhmm... *she changes the direction again* Apr 21 20:07:57 * Morgan jumps again Apr 21 20:09:09 * Molly smiles “I find it pleasant that it’s so warm and relaxing...” Apr 21 20:09:18 * Morgan nods Apr 21 20:09:19 Sounds nice Apr 21 20:10:55 * Molly nods, sending him an image, in the metal bath on the Rose, bubbles on the surface but her hand beneath, one leg casually draped over the rim, eyes closed but brows down Apr 21 20:10:58 It was. Apr 21 20:11:13 * Morgan nods, licking his lip Apr 21 20:12:13 * Molly leans forward, replacing his tongue with hers, bump against his stomach Apr 21 20:13:14 * Morgan gyrates his hips a little Apr 21 20:14:40 * Molly shifts around a little, both hands a little lower so her outer womanhood can brush against his tip Apr 21 20:15:29 * Morgan moans again Apr 21 20:16:02 * Molly murmurs against his mouth “tell me what you desire...” Apr 21 20:18:13 I don't know Apr 21 20:18:40 But what you -need- is to spend, somehow? Apr 21 20:19:25 * Morgan nods Apr 21 20:19:59 * Molly looks thoughtful “As always, I’m spoiled for choice...” Apr 21 20:21:17 * Morgan nods Apr 21 20:21:18 aye Apr 21 20:21:56 * Molly keeps brushing against him as she was, kissing his neck “I mean... do I want to bring you off with both hands underwater...” Apr 21 20:23:41 * Morgan shrugs Apr 21 20:23:42 Do you? Apr 21 20:25:06 * Molly shrugs a little, then whispers in his ear “Or do I want to grind against you and make you cum with my pregnant belly whilst you stroke your fingers over the entrance of my rear...?” Apr 21 20:27:54 * Morgan moans Apr 21 20:27:58 I don't know Apr 21 20:29:07 Let’s go for the first... I like the idea of your desire for the the second relentlessly throbbing through your mind for a little longer... Apr 21 20:29:34 * Morgan nods, moaning a little more Apr 21 20:30:40 * Molly sits back to where she was, briefly letting go and stroking her breasts and belly Apr 21 20:30:59 Are you ready now, or do you need anything else first? Apr 21 20:31:52 * Morgan makes a noise of frustration Apr 21 20:32:05 * Molly smiles Apr 21 20:32:48 I’ll take that as the former... *she brings her hands back to him, both finding a good grip around him Apr 21 20:33:26 * Morgan moans quietly once more Apr 21 20:35:35 * Molly goes back to that twisting movement, sat closer this time so his balls have the light sensation of her mound against them, working with this rhythm almost as if his manhood was part of her body instead Apr 21 20:36:36 * Morgan rolls his hips as she moves Apr 21 20:37:18 * Molly continues, watching his expression, for the most part, though sometimes watches what she can see beneath the water Apr 21 20:37:45 * Morgan groans Apr 21 20:37:47 That won't be long Apr 21 20:38:24 * Molly nods, speaking softly “Good... I’ll give you what you’ve needed all day...” Apr 21 20:38:56 * Morgan nods, just revelling in the sensations Apr 21 20:40:52 *it’s lovely and warm in the bath, his body relaxed from having been tended to. She keeps the pace, it’s not hurried, it’s predictable, but she says “Fuck I want to feel you cum from my hands...” Apr 21 20:41:53 * Morgan moans louder before swelling in her hands, his whole body tensing Apr 21 20:42:40 * Molly bites her lip, brows furrowing with empathy at the pleasure, and she watching him intently Apr 21 20:43:33 * Morgan grunts as his seed spills onto her hands Apr 21 20:44:11 * Molly watches how the water effects it, keeping going a little before gradually slowing Apr 21 20:44:29 Oh fuck Apr 21 20:44:45 * Molly nods, smiling warmly Apr 21 20:44:48 yes indeed Apr 21 20:45:30 * Morgan relaxes back against the edge of the bath Apr 21 20:46:03 * Molly moves to snuggle up beside him, her cheek on his shoulder Apr 21 20:48:19 * Morgan puts his arm around her Apr 21 20:48:39 * Molly sighs happily Apr 21 20:48:49 That’s better Apr 21 20:49:00 * Morgan nods Apr 21 20:49:01 Yes it is Apr 21 20:49:25 You feel very relieved, I hope, after such a long day of arousal Apr 21 20:50:06 * Morgan nods Apr 21 20:50:07 I do Apr 21 20:50:43 Good... *she’s quiet a few minutes before she says* Liebes Herz? Apr 21 20:51:13 Yes? Apr 21 20:52:17 You do know you can ask me any questions you ever wish to, don’t you? Anything you’re ever curious about? *this is similar to what she’d said in the dream when drunk on sedatives* Apr 21 20:52:32 Yes... I know Apr 21 20:53:15 Good... I hope that it isn’t a sign I no longer fascinate you that you don’t feel the need to... Apr 21 20:53:45 Why would you think that? Apr 21 20:54:22 I suppose because I am just so nosey with you... I wish to know so much about you, about your desire Apr 21 20:54:50 * Morgan nods slowly Apr 21 20:54:51 Alright Apr 21 20:55:17 * Molly nods, then sighs gently Apr 21 20:55:35 I think it’s time we get out, my love Apr 21 20:55:53 * Morgan nods Apr 21 20:55:56 I think you're right Apr 21 20:56:22 * Molly nods, gently disentangling herself and getting out Apr 21 20:56:50 * Morgan climbs out of the bath Apr 21 20:57:24 * Molly passes him a towel from by the fire before starting to dry her body Apr 21 20:58:16 * Morgan starts drying himself Apr 21 20:58:58 *he’s dry before she is, partly because she keeps dripping milk Apr 21 20:59:14 Should've brought pyjamas Apr 21 20:59:41 * Molly nods, point to the door “a robe will have to suffice, I think” Apr 21 21:01:23 * Morgan nods, going to fetch robes Apr 21 21:02:23 * Molly wraps another towel around her chest, tucking the end in before taking the robe Apr 21 21:03:10 * Morgan pulls a second robe around himself Apr 21 21:03:59 * Molly gets wrapped up, then pulls the plug “I am so tired now...” Apr 21 21:04:26 I'm not surprised love... lets get you back to our suite so you can get some sleep Apr 21 21:05:03 * Molly nods. She walks slowly with him, but she looks more spent even than he feels Apr 21 21:05:44 * Morgan moves to pick her up Apr 21 21:05:49 Come on, let me Apr 21 21:07:16 * Molly smiles, nodding. There’s no comment on her size or that it’ll be too awkward for him. Whatever was getting her through the exhaustion of the day and the intense magic use seems to have gone when he was finished Apr 21 21:07:58 * Morgan carries her quietly directly to their bedroom Apr 21 21:09:01 *The servants have obviously prepared well here, the sheets are turned back, the room is comfortably warm Apr 21 21:10:30 * Morgan moves to lay her gently on the bed Apr 21 21:10:48 * Molly has her eyes closed but she murmurs Apr 21 21:10:53 need to express Apr 21 21:11:26 I'll get a bowl Apr 21 21:11:36 * Molly nods Apr 21 21:11:41 * Morgan goes to find one Apr 21 21:13:27 *By the time he has, she has managed to be rid of the towel, robe half off. She’s fast asleep, which is quite surprising when he can see from what’s exposed of her body, and the familiar scent, that she was still very aroused Apr 21 21:13:47 * Morgan sighs, gently trying to rouse her Apr 21 21:14:04 * Molly is really heavily asleep Apr 21 21:14:18 Molly, come on, you need to express Apr 21 21:16:17 * Molly rouses a little, though she’s clearly not fully awake as she sits up. She seems to be almost on autopilot as she lays the towel on her lap, then the bowl Apr 21 21:37:38 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client) Apr 21 22:02:42 * Molly (~u931732@192.168.1.127) has joined Apr 21 22:03:28 * Morgan speaks quietly Apr 21 22:03:38 Alright love, soon as this is done you can go back to sleep Apr 21 22:04:39 * Molly just nods distractedly, working both breasts at once to bring the milk into the bowl Apr 21 22:06:31 * Morgan strokes her hair gently, steadying the bowl Apr 21 22:07:03 *wherever her tired mind is, she smiles* Apr 21 22:07:34 * Morgan sits with her, waiting to be done Apr 21 22:08:23 * Molly seems done a few minutes later, lots of milk in the bowl, it can’t have been comfortable Apr 21 22:09:43 * Morgan takes the bowl, putting it on the night stand before encouraging her to lie down Apr 21 22:09:48 There we go, off to sleep Apr 21 22:10:24 * Molly does, eyes closing. a few seconds later she murmurs “no, don’t apologise...” Apr 21 22:11:51 * Morgan smiles a little, moving to deal with the bowl Apr 21 22:12:45 *he hears her murmur again “your dream... arousing... when I’m pregnant... want that” Apr 21 22:13:59 * Morgan comes back, climbing into bed Apr 21 22:15:09 * Molly doesn’t even seem to register him getting in. It’s a good job he’s spent, she smells very pregnant and aroused Apr 21 22:15:24 * Morgan smiles, trying to settle Apr 21 22:16:57 *he starts to feel like he’ll fall asleep when he hears HH and Inga go into the dressing room they need to go through to the bedroom they usually use. they must have decided to stay* Apr 21 22:17:14 I: do you really think she’s okay? Apr 21 22:18:37 HH: Yeah, I bet she’s been worn out, it’s a long day when he’s normally wantin’ five times a day *his friend sounds a little tipsy* Apr 21 22:19:39 * Morgan rolls his eyes, yawning Apr 21 22:19:42 I: *she giggles* that’s why I said to send the coach that can be a bed! Apr 21 22:20:44 HH: You lassies, always tryin’ get each other laid... *he chuckles* Apr 21 22:21:34 * Morgan shifts onto his side, closing his eyes Apr 21 22:22:35 I: Always. That’s what friends are for. HH: don’t see Morgan tryinna get me laid! Inga giggles: you don’t need any help. Apr 21 22:23:06 * Morgan curls up behind Molly, trying to get to sleep Apr 21 22:23:57 * Molly moans at it, despite being asleep. There’s a notable silence from HH and Inga Apr 21 22:25:18 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 21 22:26:13 *he hears HH say “sounds like ya did a good job, lil darlin...” Inga says “shush, for the love of god don’t ruin it!” Apr 21 22:26:56 For the love of god, go to bed and be quiet Apr 21 22:28:06 *they both start chuckling, and then their door closes* Apr 21 22:28:15 * Morgan tries to settle to sleep Apr 21 22:29:20 *he falls asleep quickly, finding himself in a over-realistic sunny wheatfield, a goat chewing his trouser leg. Apr 21 22:29:41 * Morgan looks down at the goat Apr 21 22:29:43 Pack that in Apr 21 22:30:05 *it bleats at him. He feels a presence behind him* Apr 21 22:30:19 * Morgan turns Apr 21 22:31:17 * Molly is now known as Volla Apr 21 22:31:21 * Volla smiles Apr 21 22:31:26 Hello, little one Apr 21 22:31:33 * Morgan smiles Apr 21 22:31:47 Didn't expect to see you again so soon Apr 21 22:31:56 * Volla nods Apr 21 22:32:10 I didn’t expect to hear you praying so loudly Apr 21 22:33:01 I thought maybe Theus would hear it Apr 21 22:33:28 I cannot say either way. I think they will be well now Apr 21 22:33:47 Was someone with you? Apr 21 22:33:52 Yes Apr 21 22:33:59 * Morgan nods Apr 21 22:34:00 Who? Apr 21 22:34:25 remember, little one, I will tell you the truth, and you will not be able to Unknow it Apr 21 22:34:33 * Morgan nods Apr 21 22:34:35 I know Apr 21 22:36:21 I have a... sister, you might say. One of her common names is Brigid. Apr 21 22:37:12 *he would know of this Goddess, or Saint, the one from Innismore of Childbirth* Apr 21 22:37:29 * Morgan smiles a little Apr 21 22:37:41 Tough to find someone more suitable for that situation Apr 21 22:37:47 * Volla nods Apr 21 22:38:14 She is one of the few I still retain contact with Apr 21 22:39:46 It is difficult, dealing with estrangement Apr 21 22:40:11 * Volla nods “I chose Capperlucia and my people” Apr 21 22:41:30 * Morgan nods Apr 21 22:41:50 I'm not exactly the best to advise on such situations Apr 21 22:42:07 *she nods gently before saying* She has an interest in Molly. She says she has the capacity to be a great midwife with her powers Apr 21 22:43:15 * Morgan nods Apr 21 22:43:21 Someone else said similar today Apr 21 22:43:32 /me nods Apr 21 22:44:00 Years ago, Molly made offerings to her, alongside others of my kin Apr 21 22:45:13 * Morgan nods Apr 21 22:45:20 Its difficult feeling abandoned by your god Apr 21 22:45:31 * Volla nods Apr 21 22:45:55 Many people wander without a connection to my kind Apr 21 22:46:41 its... cold.
